“Ideally anyway”? “a rational actor”? Come on Demon Hunter. When do we ever have that? My own money management should certainly be in my self-interest. But I have a hell of a time keeping it rational. I can’t see any gov. policy anywhere, any time as rational.

I'm saying acting in one's self-interest is rational. Further, that is how "ideally" government actors should act - in the interest of the governed. But sometimes they are wrong and other times they are corrupt... but, if men were angels... see Federalist #51

Agreed. Good talking to you. Peace be with us. I’ll check Federalist #51.
